Years of Living Dangerously

This series of films explore many different stories around climate change in order to illuminate some of what is happening locally in our world.

Unfortunately there are not more documentaries on TV of this quality and prescience. It's extremely well written, produced and researched.

Why do some people rate this so badly? I can only guess that they are either extremely closed minded to the world we live in or they are lying selfishly for their own interests.

If you are skeptical then watch it and make your own mind up, otherwise you remain ignorant of the most important issue humanity has ever faced.

People should be ashamed at the way we are destroying this planet. Even reading many of the reviews here, so many of us are in denial, even though the science is indisputable. SHAME. Harrison Ford has done what very few of us are able to do - use his celebrity to travel to Indonesia to question the commitment of government officials there to stop the exploitation of the rain forests for palm oil. Basically the security of our planet is secondary to money making and that explains why no progress has been made to reducing human carbon emissions on the planet. This documentary series pulls no punches on what we have to do to avoid a catastrophe. Pity no-one is listening. Instead the argument is reduced to the Republicans versus the Democrats. The climate doesn't care about people's political affiliations. Those who had the political power to act and chose to do nothing will have to answer to their children and grandchildren who face living on an unlivable planet.

As someone who already understands the basics of climate change, I find little to learn from this show. It's basically celebrities asking very naive questions, softballs to get an easily impactful line. Cheadle, Ford, and Friedman are boring and humorless. The camera pans to closeups of handshakes and guns, trying a little too hard to create an atmosphere of foreboding. The typical Gore-bashing argument of flying in private jets etc. does seem especially on display here, although somebody has to fly around doing some journalism if messages are to be spread. The actual content of the show is educational. If you don't know anything about climate change and respect actors, you can get something out of this.

Just don't listen to the "One Star Votes" their arguments are so flawed i don't even know where to start.

All the episodes so far had nothing to do with the participants being rich or anything else.

The arguments in here are nothing new , though an eye opener they should be for all religious people on how, and here comes the contradictory part for them, believing in science can be possibly being religious, one thing i really like about the show.

The sheer science and blatant evidence you see, has nothing to do with what biased comments you get of "The One Star Votes", so just don't even bother reading them.

It is a really good show and the means of transport to getting the message across in here, are in this case Celebrities, nothing wrong with that if you ask me.

Just watch it some episodes will baffle you on what mindless RAPE is committed on nature just for money.

i really loved the show. it brings out the true scale of catastrophic natural disasters that are bound to happen if we keep on exploiting our mother earth the same way we are doing it. Also the urge to educate our political leaders to take necessary actions in-order to preserve whatever resources we have and use it wisely and start working towards a sustainable future keeping aside dirty politics also as they are ignorant about climate change and in the name of development allows top corporate companies to exploit the planet resources which is acting as a catalyst in the process of climate degradation. Global Warming is a true man made phenomenon and not something created by some supernatural entity and needs to be brought under control. I really hope everyone watches it and do their part to preserve the only planet we call HOME.
